A New Business Model for Open Source Projects

Storj is a fully open source and decentralized storage solution that brings an Airbnb-like business model to users who have extra storage and bandwidth. At the Open Source Summit North America, Storj announced a new program that extends the revenue generation model to open source projects.

The newly announced Open Source Partner Program enables open source projects to generate revenue every time their users store data in the cloud.

"Our Open Source Partner Program will help open source companies to remain open and free and invest in growth," said Storj CEO Ben Golub.
